“She gets nervous around lots of other dogs. Finding Claire has been such a relief. She gives Bonnie so much attention and confidence that it's like she's just out walking with me.”
Dog walking reviews from owners who wanted something smaller and more personal
Choosing a dog walker is about trusting someone with a member of your family. These are genuine testimonials from owners whose dogs needed patience, individual attention or a calmer alternative to large group walks.
Trusted with nervous, rescue and older dogs
I keep walks deliberately small so I can get to know each dog and adapt the walk to them. These testimonials show what that can look like for very different dogs.
“Beany came to us terrified of people and other dogs. Claire kept other dogs at a gentle distance and stayed so calm and patient with him. Over time his trust grew, and walks that used to be stressful became easy.”
“Arthur is a proper old gentleman now and can't walk far, but he still loves being out in the world. Claire gets that completely. He always comes home happy.”
More time to notice the dog in front of me
Walk with Claire offers solo and maximum-two dog walks in Stubbington and Hill Head. With fewer dogs, there is more time for sniffing, play, reassurance and individual attention, and more freedom to change the pace or route when a dog needs it.
This can be especially helpful for nervous or rescue dogs, older dogs, puppies and young dogs, dogs returning to exercise after illness or surgery, and dogs who simply do not enjoy large pack walks.
Would your dog be happier on a smaller walk?
